Abstract
Important portions for measurements such as measurement of a peak value can be measured with a substantially constant accuracy, by making an applied sinusoidal wave variable. An amplitude adjuster is disposed behind a sinusoidal wave generator. A sinusoidal wave applied to a voltage electrode is variable. An electrical current induced in a current electrode according to the nature of a sample is fed to an arithmetic portion via a current detector, a peak value-measuring device, and an A/D converter. The arithmetic portion performs a calculation. Then, an amplitude applied to the voltage electrode is determined and adjusted by the amplitude adjuster.
